public static void Test()
{
//Replace the following string value with your valid X-RapidAPI-Key.
string Your_X_RapidAPI_Key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
//The query parameters: (update according to your search query)
string q = "Taylor%20Swift"; //the search query
int pageNumber = 1; //the number of requested page
int pageSize = 10; //the size of a page
bool autoCorrect = true; //autoCorrectspelling
bool safeSearch = false; //filter results for adult content
//Perform the web request and get the response
var response = Unirest.get(string.Format("https://contextualwebsearch-websearch-v1.p.rapidapi.com/api/Search/WebSearchAPI?q={0}&pageNumber={1}&pageSize={2}autoCorrect={3}safeSearch={4}", q, pageNumber, pageSize, autoCorrect, safeSearch))
.header("X-RapidAPI-Key", Your_X_RapidAPI_Key)
.asJson();
//Get the ResponseBody as a JSON
dynamic jsonBody = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(response.Body);
//Parse the results
//Get the numer of items returned
int totalCount = (int)jsonBody["totalCount"];
//Get the list of most frequent searches related to the input search query
List relatedSearch = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject>(jsonBody["relatedSearch"].ToString());
//Go over each resulting item
foreach (var webPage in jsonBody["value"])
{
//Get the web page metadata
string url = webPage["url"].ToString();
string title = webPage["title"].ToString();
string description = webPage["description"].ToString();
string keywords = webPage["keywords"].ToString();
string provider = webPage["provider"]["name"].ToString();
DateTime datePublished = DateTime.Parse(webPage["datePublished"].ToString());
//Get the web page image (if exists)
string imageUrl = webPage["image"]["url"].ToString();
int imageHeight = (int)webPage["image"]["height"];
int imageWidth = (int)webPage["image"]["width"];
//Get the web page image thumbail (if exists)
string thumbnail = webPage["image"]["thumbnail"].ToString();
int thumbnailHeight = (int)webPage["image"]["thumbnailHeight"];
int thumbnailidth = (int)webPage["image"]["thumbnailWidth"];
//An example: Output the webpage url, title and published date:
Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Url: {0}. Title: {1}. Published Date:{2}.",
url,
title,
datePublished));
